Upon opening the box, we find the FT01 wrapped in thick plastic and suspended inside the case by two large pieces of Styrofoam, one at the top and the other at the bottom of the midtower. Also included was a small box of hardware (screws, motherboard mounts, etc.), an installation manual and a 3-to-4 pin pass-through fan power adapter. The instruction manual is complete with lots of diagrams showing you exactly how each feature of the case functions.


Here we have the FT01 itself. SilverStone shipped the case with a sheet of protective plastic over both the inside and outside of the case window, but I removed that before taking photographs. As you can already see, the FT01 takes a lot of styling queues from the original TJ07, which is certainly not a bad thing.

As with all of my case reviews, I will start by working my way around the exterior of the chassis before diving in to get a look at the internals.
